JUST A. YOU SIZE 1T.

Several gentlemen had the great kindness

pen TO sc it, or rather, it is all owing to the
reader Somebody has been found to say
the same thir, almost OF everything we have
ever written for Wichita in the last fourteen
years. About this time year ago one of
the original proprietors of the town, after
reading an article exactly suited to him
offered to bet lis 4 new hat that we never
coaid write another article on Wichita, tut
we iatter ourselves that since then We have
not only written one but many as full OF in

MONEY RECOVERED.

Some weeks ago lad thought to take in
the town and paint it slightly red at the same
time He moored his fragile bark in dive;
when the morning hours appeared he found
that his pocket book, containing SID, had
disappeared. He put the police after the
money and they skirmished high and low for
the same for some days, but with no success.
The lad finally gave up all hopes and settled
down to business Last evening he received
a note from one be knew some years ago,
asking him to call at a certain place. lie
was very much surprised, but responded,
and was met by the sender Of the note with
the money. ST e had been a friend of his IN
former years and stole the money from the
the inmate of the house that had made the

REALTY YESTERDAY.
The number of instruments filed at

The number of instruments filed at the
register of deeds office yesterday was 30,
which is thirty-one more than on any previ-
GUS day. AS would be supposed from the
above the life ia the real estate world was
unusually brisk. This idea is intensified by
a glance at the transfers. While there was
a number of large sales placed on record
deeds for others were not filed although the
sales were made. There seems to be no doubt
but that more property changed hands yes
terday than on any previous day in the his
tory of the city. All the real estate marts
were crowded in the early morning hours.
Some of the offices were uncomfortably full.
Sometimes round hslf-doZen men would be
working for the same piece of property and
as rule it was rot long until some one was
busy making out the deed.

PAVING AND SEwERING.
A Talk it'll a Prominent Capitalist About
wichita.

Yesterday we We're handed a letter from
c. b. Schmidt, vice president of the Equita-
bic Trust company, introducing c. E.
Squires, member and representative OF the
Barber Asphalt Paving company. who has
been spending couple of days in Wichita
This is the company that paved the streets of
Washington and Omaha, and are putting
down their work in Philadelphia, Baltimore
and many other cities. Mr.. SquiJ'es is very
observant gentleman, and thoroughly posted
on the paving and sewerage question. AS
for the latter, he says he agrees with the
EAGLE that the old fashioned tunnel system
would not only prove very dangerous TO the
health of this city, but would cost about
eight times as much as the flushing or Weir
system Omaha, he says, has a compete
drainage under the last system, which in
stead of costing million Of dollars, cost but
$4,000.
AS for the Barber pavements, its great
merits are getting to be pretty well under
stood. The company, in fact, guaranty for
five years. But it costs, the excayating, and
six inches OF concrete and the asphalt sur
face all told ranging about 50 90 per square
yard. Mr. Schmidt writes to US that more
than any other public improvement The
Barber pavement has made Omaha the
b indsome city that it is While Wichita
POSSESSES the finest natural streets III the
woi Id, or at least the finest we ever saw,
never emitting up OF ,niring 10 the wetest
seasoEs; yet. We suppose, this paving bust
ness must come sooner OF latter, and when 1t
does come We want to widen our sidewalks
six or eight feet and then put down on our
streets the very best pavement known to
civilization. The Barber company probably
stands at the head of the line.
M Squires, whose letter OF recommends
ton places his financial standing high, says
he is all taken up with Wichita, and
that he got all the extra
copies OF Wednesday mornings EAGLE he
could find and sent them to eastern capital
sts He says in conversation the other
iay, AT the Grand Pacific hotel in Chicago,
with some capitalists, touching Wichita as a
future great city, they could not make up
5heir minds that We would ever overshadow
kausas City and Omaha, Or even overtake
them IN commercial Importance, but ne ac-
lnowledges now that having seen for him
,ef he is satisfied, and that he Immediately
Tot only sent the aforesaid copies of the
EAGLE mentioned, but wrote them that un-

ia was the place to make the investment

TOUGH on FRIENDS.

A few DAYS ago a gentleman returned from
city he met q number OF friends who were
enquiring of Wichita, and number express
ed desire to send money here for invest
ment He claims that he told some OF them
to lend money to a certain agent, one who
he considered honest to friend and stranger.
1t seems that three of them sent cOnsidera-
bic money 90 the agent mentioned with in
struction to use it 20 ais best ability. There
seems to &c ~ dout; that he used it.
When til. ..avel;ng gentleman returned he
investi5 gate tue Investments Tlada by tho
agent with he money sent him. Tie con-
sidaration in the deeds showed from $3.50 to
500 more per lot than those adjoining, ami
the los bad belonged 20 the slick agent
and in his pet addition. The
investigation led the fellow TO suspicion that
all vas rot WE'LL consequently he commenced
writing to his friends to iin,i out what they
had paid. lie received some letters yester-
day stating lat he amounts shown in the
deeds were correct.
One may we'll guess the mood lie was IL
when tie contents OF the letter became
know. He very soon commenced TO devise
a plan for redress. H claims that he
never expect to make an honest
man out of thief, but will try and
protect the public, and especially his own
friends, from that broadcioth agent" He
affirns that Mr. Sly agent will be made to
feel the hand of the law if there is any sort
of literature that applies to his case AT
any rate the public shall know full particu-
lars OF the dishonest scheme.

THE BOON AND BUILDINGS.

The grand rush for real estate yesterday
seems to have spent most of its force on
Fourth avenue. For some days large sales
have been noticed in that section and very
naturally it is suspected that it means some
thing. The idea seems to prevail that that
avenue is booked for business street in the
near future. 1t is argued that the business
eye is looking at it from Douglas avenue to
Oak street.
The number of large sales in that section
seems to be not the only thing that has hap
pened in the last few days. Mr.. ". 5.
Rogers has decided TO put up a business
building on the southwest corner Of Central
and Fourth avenues. 1t will have a front Of
seventy-five feet aud one hundred
and twenty feet deep, and three
stories high. a part of the
building has already been engaged for an art
emporium by an eastern gentleman. Mr..
Rogers has decided upon plans, anb will IN
few days commence work
Another gentleman has decided to erect a
brick business building on the northwest
corner of Central and Fourth avenues. 1t
viii have front OF fifty feet and one hun
dred feet deep, and three stories high. The
lower rooms Will be made suitable for bust
ness and the upper stories divided into Off
ces. The gentleman says that he Will COM
merce excavating for his building in a few
weeks.
Between Central avenue and Third street
on the east side of Fourth avenue,
Mr.. George has decided TO build
another business bricl, building. Il viii,
a :cording 10 plans, have front Of fifty feet
I'd one hundred and twenty feet deep and
three stories high. lie intends to make the
foundation aud walls Of sufficient strength
to carry two more stories. and is not at all
sure but that he will make the building five
stories high at once instead of three. The
lower floor of his building has already been
engaged by an eastern company who will put
in a wholesale stock OF hardware He means
to complete his building just as soon as
possible.
Mr.. McAlester is also numbered among
adopted plans for brick business building
to be located on the southwest corner
of Third street and Fourth avenue
His will have a front of of fifty feet and one
hundred feet deep and three stories hight
He anticipates commencing work in d few
days and will endeavor to be ready to collect
rents as soon as possible.
1t will be remembered that some days ago
it was stated that some gentlemen were fig
uring on building to cost near $4,000, a
part of which would be Use for an opera
house The informant mentioned the site OF the
building with the assurance that the exact
locality should not be mentioned. lie stated,
however, that the avenue it was on could be
stated aud that it was on Fourth avenue.
